Getting started

• AC/DC power adapter:
Used to power the Engine Analyzer and
charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery.
Powering the FSA 450 with the AC/DC
adapter also isolates the analyzer from the
circuit being measured as long as earth
ground is not connected to the measured
circuit through another device. This most
commonly occurs when a battery charger
is connected to the vehicle battery.
Extreme caution should be taken when
powering the FSA 450 from the AC/DC
adapter to avoid connecting earth ground
to the measurement
another device. For example, if a battery
charger is connected to the vehicle battery,
the FSA 450 can be damaged if the power
and ground leads are reversed.
• Cigarette lighter
adapters:
Used for operating the FSA 450 on the
road. This power cable can be connected
to the vehicle's cigarette lighter receptacle
or used in combination with the battery
adapter cable to power the FSA 450
directly from the vehicle battery. When
powering the FSA 450 from the vehicle,
the analyzer is not isolated from the circuit
being measured. This can adversely affect
the analyzer's measurement accuracy and
circuit protection if test leads are not
attached correctly or there is a wiring fault
in the vehicle. However, a fuse inside the
cigarette lighter plug provides additional
protection.
To avoid possible damage to the tester
and inaccurate measurements, do not
operate the 4 Channel Oscilloscope with
the tester powered from the vehicle under
test.
